The amount of zero-emission trucks, buses and off-road equipment to choose from in the U.S. and Canada will increase 78% year-over-year, according to projections from the Zero-Emission Technology Inventory.
CALSTART commends Chairman DeFazio (D-OR) and the House Committee on Transportation & Infrastructure for the release of the “Investing in a New Vision for the Environment and Surface Transportation (INVEST) in America Act,” a five-year, $494 billion down payment that represents a strong investment in our highways, transportation infrastructure, clean transit and commercial vehicles, and support of critical transportation-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and pollution reductions.
Despite the impacts of Covid-19 on vehicle sales and production, zero-emission (ZE) truck and bus models are on the verge of a major surge in the United States and Canada. New data from Calstart’s Global Commercial Vehicle Drive to Zero’s Zero-Emission Technology Inventory (ZETI) tool shows that by the end of 2020, the U.S. and Canada are on track to have 169 different ZE commercial vehicle models available or soon-to-be-available for purchase compared to 95 models in 2019 – a 78 percent increase.
North America is experiencing an increase in zero-emission commercial vehicle offerings as fleets and shippers look to reduce pollution and comply with increasingly strict regional regulations, according to research from Calstart, a clean transportation accelerator.
The number of models of zero-emission trucks, buses, and off-road equipment is expected to double between the end of 2019 and 2023, according to a new analysis by Calstart. “Zero-emission trucks and buses are on the verge of a major surge in the U.S. and Canada,” said Calstart Northeast Regional Director Ben Mandel during a June 2 media briefing. “The growth we’re seeing is happening really across the board.”

The market for zero-emission truck models is hardly a zero-sum game. In fact, the number of electric vehicles available in Canada and the U.S. continues to surge.
